We had a wonderful experience with the Farmhouse for our October 2024 wedding. Anna, our coordinator, was extremely helpful and responsive, and really put us at ease knowing that things would be taken care of. Our guests raved over the venue and really enjoyed the food and drinks. Plus, the landscaping is beautiful and we got some great photos!

We have been working with [and for] Castle Farm since the beginning. We did the first wedding ever there! Every year they add something new and there are tons of places for pictures! The owners are great people and are extremely accommodating to everyone! You can have a beer pony, horses in your portraits and the guests truly love the interaction! No matter where you are you get an incredible view! I can't say enough about this place and the owners...it is definitely a one of a kind location you won't forget!

We booked our wedding at the TWI just about 4 months before our date. Melanie, Sarah, and Brandi made the process so easy. Leading up to the date, they were easy-going and accommodating answering questions and recommending vendors. They were so easy to work with. The day/weekend of, they are true pros and took care of all sorts of little things without skipping a beat. Not to mention the food was incredible! and you can't beat the classic aesthetic of the venue.
